<h3>Upgrading from 3.1 to 3.1.x using update manager</h3>
</p>
<p>To upgrade from 3.1 to 3.1.x using update manager, you must manually specify 
  a new update site.<a href="#footnote1"><sup>1</sup></a> These instructions describe 
  how to update from 3.1 to 3.1.x or from 3.1.1 to 3.1.2 only. These instructions 
  should <u>not</u> be used to upgrade from a 3.0.x build to 3.1 or 3.1.1. </p>
<p>In Eclipse 3.1, select</p>
<p><strong>Help</strong> --&gt; <strong>Software Updates</strong> --&gt; <strong>Find and Install</strong> --&gt; <strong>Search for New features to Install</strong> </p>

<p> In the <strong>New Update Site</strong> dialog, enter Name: <strong>Eclipse 
  SDK 3.1.x Updates</strong> and URL: <strong>http://update.eclipse.org/updates/3.1</strong></strong> 
</p>

<p>&nbsp; </p>
<p>Select <strong>OK</strong>.</p>
<p><img src="images/check.JPG" width="600" height="538"></p>
<p>Ensure that only <strong>Eclipse 3.1.x SDK updates</strong> check box is selected 
  and press <strong>Finish</strong>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><img src="images/mirrors.JPG" width="456" height="377"></p>
<p>The update process should now proceed as usual.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a name="footnote1"><sup>1</sup> The eclipse update site is specified as http://update.eclipse.org/updates/3.0 
  in Eclipse 3.1 features. However, you cannot upgrade to 3.0 to 3.1 using update 
  manager because the startup.jar and eclipse executable were upgraded from 3.0 
  to 3.1 and update manager does not currently support upgrading these files. 
  If we placed the 3.1.x updates in the standard 3.x update site, this could cause 
  problems for 3.0 installations. Consquently, we have created a new update site 
  for the 3.1.x maintenance streams http://update.eclipse.org/updates/3.1. See 
  https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=123162 for further details.</p>
